Pirates are born to be king

Chapter 49 The hard-to-eat cake

Andel Simon's first condition is to pay another 15 billion beli to the World Government within two years as the cost of buying and selling slaves. This is understandable to Valpo, but when he said that the second condition is that he cannot participate in the World Conference, it is really It was beyond his expectation. .

Since when did the buying and selling of slaves have anything to do with world conferences?

This is the most prosperous and important meeting in the One Piece world held every four years, and now, I am actually asked not to attend? !

At this moment, several people in the reception room had different expressions. Valpo's face showed a stunned expression that could not be concealed, Dalton looked humiliated and angry, and Jace's eyes were hidden between Andre Simon and the wine. Looking back and forth between the group of people, he seemed to be looking for the connection between several things, and his thick lips were pursed.

The owner's smile remained unchanged, and he didn't seem to feel that what he was making was an excessive request.

Valpo couldn't figure out the reason. He had too little information. The Shampoo Islands, the World Government, and even the person in front of him were completely shrouded in fog. He could only ask questions and find ways to find out from the other party's words. The answer is, "Well, Your Excellency Andel Simon, can you tell me the reason why you can't participate?"

"Of course, that's exactly what I'm going to say next." Andel Simon nodded, but did not answer directly. Instead, he carefully admired the art-level wine bottle of 'Life' and sighed, "This is really a rare sight in a lifetime. The beautiful scenery, I believe that if I am lucky enough to be bottled in such a beautiful and unique bottle, the wine inside must be top-notch and unforgettable.”

"Ahem, yes." As the creator of all this, Valpo was somewhat proud of being praised in person.

"I have been addicted to wine all my life, love wine, good wine, and use my life to accompany wine. This wine group is really wonderful to me. Please allow me to express my most sincere thanks..." Andel Simon turned his head, stood up and bent over. I thanked you so fast that Valpo couldn't even stop him, "Thank you Your Highness for bringing such a wonderful 'beauty' into my life. I even have a premonition that my life will be sublimated because of her. This It is simply a gift from God to me, how can I not thank you?"

"Yes, is it that good?" Valpo was a little shy at the praise.

Andel Simon's expression became sincere, "It is precisely because of this that I advise His Highness not to attend the World Conference."

Because you want to thank me, you don't want me to attend the World Conference?

So that's it, I understand...I understand!

"Yes, really..." Valpo's mouth twitched, "I still don't quite understand."

"Because of 5 slaves." Andel Simon looked directly at Valpo without any dodge. "Because you want all the slaves, of course, you also eat everyone's 'cake'. I can give you slaves, but I can't give you safety, Your Highness." The slave trading official stated the reason straightforwardly, looking completely different from the old fox before.

Andel Simon stretched out his right hand, spread the five fingers, and then bent the first finger, "Kings of all countries."

Then came the second finger, "The owner of the auction house and the forces behind him."

The third root is, "The gathering of wealthy businessmen."

The fourth root, "Waiting for redemption, snatching back the slave's relatives or non-franchised countries"

The fifth root, "There are even... pirates and human traffickers who snatched slaves."

He put all his fingers together to form a fist, "They are all waiting for these 5 slaves, and the power of these forces, even the world government and the navy, will tremble. This is why when I heard You need all the slaves, why are you so surprised because no one has ever done anything so crazy.”

Valpo broke into a cold sweat after hearing this, and Jace and Dalton also turned pale. They only thought of the benefits of slaves, but forgot that behind these huge benefits, there was also huge danger.

He wouldn't ask stupid questions about whether there was a world government responsible for transporting slaves, because he could imagine that these [-] slaves would be safe from beginning to end, and the real ones would be in danger.

in fact,

It's him...

He is the weak point of the entire slave trade!

Valpo gritted his teeth. He tried hard to appear more comfortable, but the thought of the death he might face already made him tremble.

He is still too weak!

Even too weak to protect the interests he has gained!

With the current high-end combat power of the Drum Kingdom, it is okay to deal with ordinary people. If you want to deal with stronger pirates, even those second to third echelon strongmen who are not able to use domineering at first, they will not have the slightest ability to parry.

Valpo originally thought that he was the king of the franchising country and could not care about personal force, but at this time Andre Simon's words gave him a blow. Although the slave trading official did not say it directly, he was no different from what he said clearly...

This is the world of One Piece, a world where the strong are respected. When the benefits are great enough to make it worthy for those strong to take action, Valpo, the drum king, is just a character who can be crushed to death easily.

And when he dies, facing [-] slaves without an owner, who will be willing to take care of a dead king? !

For the current plan, he can only survive if he gives up some of his slaves, gives up his interests, and even returns most of the 'cake' to various forces.

but……

He is really unwilling,

After planning for a long time, now that the whole cake was placed in front of him, he couldn't eat it. It felt like watching the meat in his bowl being picked away piece by piece.

He decided that after returning home this time, the first mate must strengthen his personal combat power, but that will happen later, and the current crisis still needs to be resolved.

Valpo looked at the person who advised him not to attend the World Conference again. The other person still looked straight at him, his eyes full of sincerity, and he looked worried for him.

Andel Simon spoke at the right time, "It seems that His Highness has figured it out." He paused, leaned forward, and lowered his voice, "If you still want all the slaves, I can make the decision and change the route of the slave fleet. , go directly to the Drum Island, and what you have to do is to set off immediately to chase the fleet. Of course, due to the special nature of this world conference, you can also urgently apply for a general to escort you."

It turns out that Ander Simon is ready to make a time difference.

Jess roughly said before he came that all slave distribution would basically be done after the World Conference, which would also make it easier for each force to return with the slaves.

What Ander Simon did was to use the usual practices of the various forces to paralyze the other party and complete the slave transaction before they could react. As the buyer, he was indeed not suitable to stay in the Chambord Islands. God knows who knew that. How will the passive forces who have their own 'cake' treat themselves.

This old fox of the World Government seems to have considered every step for Valpo, including safety, because of 'life'.

but,

On the contrary, Valpo will also offend a large number of unknown enemies for this...
